Hey Beautiful people! It's ya girl Joy! :) This is where the magic happens, and Where you watch me catch up on life, Music, and whatever you want me to see! So excited to go on this journey with you all, so with that being said...LETSSS GET IT STARTED!!! P.S.- Go check out my Main Channel for some entertainment! (Vlogs, Pranks, Skits, and MORE!!!)
This was from the movie, Jailhouse Rock. After his moves in this movie and some of his live shows, when he was on television they only filmed him from the waist up. They called him Elvis the pelvis.
Would be good to do a comparison of this rehearsed, choreographed version to his live version on the '68 Comeback Special at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-87N6Qa0D7KY.html -- this was Elvis unleashed, doing what he did best.
Hi, just thought I would drop you a line quickly to say thanks for your reaction to this performance, which if you are not already aware, is from one of his early movies - 'Jailhouse Rock" wouldn't you know ! Ha ha. No music videos back then, no MTV, so if it weren't for the films, we would not have this. Eventually he grew very tired of the films that he was contracted to fulfill by his manager, the infamous Col Tom Parker, a Dutchman, and not actually a Colonel! Thanks again, keep 'em coming!
And an illegal alien till the day he died. Glad you mentioned no music videos back then, etc. I've been saying this forever & people just don't get it. Seems like you can't get people to understand & get darn stubborn about it -- that this was a clip from the film that we now can see without watching the entire film. Thx.
Just a quick note to say that If I Can Dream encompassed the assassination of Robert Kennedy, the turmoil of the world which included the Vietnam war, & was not to honor any one person or incident but was a wish for a world of peace & harmony.
"If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair" is exactly how my older siblings learned how to dance, LOL. Great song, great reaction. Elvis would be thrilled that young people still enjoy his music & entertaining all of these decades later. Will have to check your videos and see what other Elvis music you've reacted to & make a few suggestions. Thanks for keeping Elvis music alive.
When Peter was on MTV being interviewed by Martha Quinn, she came back from the following commercial break blushing - Peter told her what "sledgehammer" was a reference to.

I listen to it every day. It was Elvis’ favorite of his Christmas songs): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KZ64T6gEdC4.htmlfeature=shared
Vernon Reid is a great guitarist,, a shredding monster! The man is highly appreciated by Eddie Van Halen, Trevor Rabin, Pete Townshend and Keith Richard's. Kick ass hard rock band from the 80s,,, life was soooo much better then!!!
Great video. Great song. Peter Gabriel is a creative force. Something tells me that there may be several intended meanings for 'Sledgehammer'. The opening sequence gives us a hint. Sexual Innuendo? Oh, Yeah.
where the hell you bin been a long time anyway always enjoy your reaction to Elvis (BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS) 1970 LIVE FROM VEGAS. ALSO IF YOU LIKE GOSPEL ---(YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE ) AUDIO ONLY
You already earned MY SUB... pure FIRE girl!!!! Elvis Presley would have LOVED to see you react to his music. He would have embraced social media. His #1 demographic was YOUNG PEOPLE. He LOVED American youth and was their icon versus the SOCIAL ELITES, the older generation. I think young people today appreciate Elvis for his rebellious actions. He was HUGE proponent of the YOUTH revolution and the CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT of the 1950s and 60s. And he paid black talent HUGE sums of money and even hired them during an era where black talent WAS NOT GETTING PAID for their work.
HEY JOY THANKS FOR REACTING TO ELVIS UR SUCH A SWEETHEART PLEASE DO URSELF A HUGE FAVOR AND ME REACT TO HIS SONG NEW ORLEANS AND YOUNG DREAMS HIS MOVIE SCENES SONGS FROM THE MOVIE KING CREOLE BUT TO SEE HIM BETTER U MAY WANT TO TYPE IN REMASTERED SO THEY WILL BE IN COLOR BUT YOUNG DREAMS THEY GET GREAT CLOSE UPS ON HIS FACE HE'S SO BEAUTIFUL I PRAY U REACT TO THOSE SOON THANKS DARLING!❤ OH AND ELVIS WAS 22 WHEN HE MADE THIS MOVIE AND SONG!
Great reaction! My favorite Elvis song changes all of the time. Right now 2 favorites are "Mean Woman Blues" and "Thrill of Your Love". I would suggest you react to Elvis live in 1970 singing "Just Pretend" in LasVegas.
PM DAWN was so underrated during a time when people were chasing gangster rap and violence.. You should check out Arrested Development's song "Tennessee"
A decent British art school boy suddenly climbing the charts with a song about penetration. Who would've guessed? (As for suggestions, I'd love to see you react to Amanda Palmer. Any song, really, but "Astronaut" might be a good start.)
I really love how you enjoy videos all the way through and don't stop them every second - please review Queens I want to break free, that would be fun to see you do
Many are not aware of the very last recording released after Minnie’s passing called, Love Lives Forever. It was a project with vocal duets & collaborations with great instrumentalists including Stevie Wonder on harmonica. It was produced by her husband, Rudolph. Most of the guest vocals were recorded after she died as well. Her husband produced it. Michael Jackson, George Benson, Patrice Rushen, Peabo Bryson, Roberta Flack. I recall my fav being The Song of Life (La-La-La) with Patrice Rushen.
BTW, if your up for suggestions, you will likely get mind-blown by Peter Gabriel, Secret World Tour, "In Your Eyes." I know you like live concert footage, that one is pretty and EPIC! 🌹☺️😁🌹!
Hey Joy. 🤗 It's nice to see you back in the game! Ya know, I been pretty beat up lately with some cancer problems. But know this......re-watching some of your older stuff helped me get through some rough stuff. I'm glad you're out there! Respect 😇🤩🌹✌️
I watched a reaction video and liked something you had said about your dad so I subscribed.. I did not realise you were with Harlem Globe Trotters..I come from Australia and in late 70s early 80s I had a harlem globe Trotters teeshirt..before that I did not even know what basketball was. Well done..what an outstanding achievement..and to think I'm following because you comment on songs..haha Huge respect to you ..👏👏
Hello A Dose of Joy: You just witnessed perfection. When he began his concerts in Las Vegas in 1989, he would do two shows a night, which was unheard of at the time, however over time, he reduced his performances to one show per night. He performed at the Las Vegas Hilton from inception to 1977 at the age of 42, his age of death. He was a magnificent performer and has a wonderful assortment of music choices, one of his favorites is gospel, spiritual, but the variety is vast, he could capture any genre of music of choice. Keep listening for the thrill of a lifetime. Of course, there are a plethora of great musicians also, but I am always amazed by him……..🎶🙏✝❤🇺🇸 BTW-he served two years in the military, Germany for one of those years. ENJOY!!!!!
It’s all about LSD. Grateful Dead, Doors at the time everything was about LSD. I saw the band in 1968. Electric Ladyland for myself his best album. I play guitar and am left handed. I buy left handed guitars and I have a left handed Hindix model. Thanks ⚡️🎸⚡️
Try a different “Jolene.” Ray LaMontagne sings his own “Jolene” and it’s beautiful. And since you like different sounds, try My Morning Jacket. Pick any live show-scores of songs on RU-vid-and fall in love.
I am surprised and amused how so many young women your age who's parents had not even met when Elvis did this still fall for Elvis and get jealous at this video.
